Sporiul Telegram 10 the Register
PNREERSHURG, May THE defeat Of
Mr. Camden, which is now believed set
tied, is regretted here exceedingly. What
he has done tor this city aud State will
not soon be forgotten, and his many friends
here of all parties would have cOngratu-
lated him on his election 1t is Int the
truth to say that good many Republicans
would like to have seen him elected.
From political standpoint Republicans
are exultant at his defeat. The Democrats
who failed to obey the dictates OF their
party caucus are denounced on every hand.
The state Journal tonight read Whitaker,
Minear, Carr, Depue and WoOdyaId out
of the marty and sounds the political death
knell of Democrats who have stood for
Mr.. Camden. Mr. Camden has made a
bold fight against heavy odds and comes
out with honor if not with victory. Such
is the sentiment here tonight.

south. The shock was preceded by heavy
rumbling explosion.
Tucson, ARIZ., May Am earthquake
occurred here at PIP p. IN. Yesterday. No
one was injured, but considerable damage
was done to buildings Goods were thrown
from. the shelves of stores and many
houses were cracked. The shock
was accompanied by rumb-
ling sound. The entire population
fed TO the streets terror stricken. The
Court House cupOla swayed like the masts
of a ship in turbulent sea, and the build
ing seemed as though it were tOppling
over. When the shock struck Santa Cat
alma mountain great slices of the noun
tain were torn from its side and thrown to
its base. Vast clouds of dust rose above
its crest, seven thousand feet above the
sea level, at three different points, fIom
three to f'ur miles apart. 1t was believed
for some time that a volcano had
burst out. The crest of the noun
tain, one towering peak known as
Old Castle, a prominent landmark from
Tucson, has entirely disappeared. The
extent of the damage cannot he told for
several days This was the first earthquake
shock ever experienced in Tucson. 1t
lasted about four minutes. One or two
slight vibrations have since been felt. The
movement of the tremOr was northwest.
Shortly after the earthquake volcano
broke out - miles south of this place, in
the total wreck of mountains The sky is
brilliantly illuminated.
WILCOX, ARIZONA, May A severe
earthquake shock was felt here at 2:lO yes

At San Carlos they lasted two
and one half minutes. The Indians were

BENSON, ARIZ., May A sensation
was created here ut 2p. M. yesterday by a
severe earthquake. Minor shocks were
felt at intervals far into the night. Great
excitement prevailed and everybody rushed |
from their places of business and homes
A Southern Pacific engine on turntable |
was moved backward and forwards with
brakes set. A party just in from the
vicinity of the Sappedro river reports
the ground as opening about |
six inches and the water rising
in places that were before perfectly dry. |
Smoke was noticed about five O'Clock,
which appeared in theneighborhood of the
MILESTONE Mountains, eight miles from
here. Some say it is a volcanic eruption.
As nothing of that character has ever been
known in this region, the greatest surprise
and curiosity exists. Several buildings in |
the city were materially damaged by seri- |
Gus cracks, and the losses are estimated on
each at from 5000 to 81 900.
